What a shame, I really liked this pen, was working on the nib because it seemed crooked and misaligned…
Can I fix the feed or find a replacement one or is this thing dead?

It would be hard to get a direct substitute that would work the same way when 3d printed. Even very small layer lines would interfere with the flow of the ink. For this type of application injection moulding is far superior.
Fluid dynamics is difficult, but someone may be able to design a pen that relies on the layer lines. But it won’t be easy.
very good point
Yeah, I tried printing a pen. My take on a Conklin crescent filler. Worked great for a day, then capillary action killed the vibe.
